About the Role

Applied AI Engineer – Engineering Simulation & Design Exploration Location:

Quebec (Hybrid) Team:

Technology Research

About the Role Engineering simulation is undergoing a structural shift. What used to be a slow, solver‑driven process is becoming a fast, exploration‑driven workflow, enabled by surrogate models, physics‑informed AI, and GPU‑accelerated methods. This changes not just how simulations run, but how engineers design—moving from evaluating a few options to exploring entire design spaces.

What You Will Do

Keep track of new technologies in the field

Evaluate emerging simulation and AI tools through hands‑on prototyping

Build and benchmark surrogate models against traditional FEM/CFD workflows

Test robustness, limitations, and failure modes of new approaches

Prototype hybrid pipelines (e.g., surrogate + high‑fidelity validation)

Explore how these approaches can integrate into real engineer...
